Suni-Ridge is a wildlife sanctuary conserving sensitive, irreplaceable sand forest habitat for endangered species. Due to the high prices paid for illegal wildlife trade in rare species many vulnerable animals have been cruelly snared. Previously, 85 snares were recovered in one night. There is an urgent need for increased security. Our Sanctuary must protect our biodiversity and funds are desperately needed to keep our wildlife safe.
The consequence of the worldwide unrest has reduced the number of visitors to our Sanctuary and our income is limited - But we need to do all we can to improve the security of the wildlife and biodiversity we have conserved. Poaching has dramatically increased in our Region threatening the wildlife that Suni-Ridge has conserved. Your donation can help us to increase security patrols, bush surveillance cameras, observation drones, and security fencing. Please help to prevent dreadful cruelty.
More rangers and equipment are needed to perform anti-poaching patrols to increase law enforcement presence and visibility in high-risk areas. Your valuable support would also assist with vital veterinary work needed to treat the animals that survived the recent snaring and to allow ongoing rehabilitation work to continue during this difficult time.
Over the past 28 years, Suni-Ridge has been committed to rehabilitating and protecting an important biodiverse remnant of Sand Forest which supports numerous threatened species. The current times are unprecedented, and the Sanctuary is at risk of losing animals that it has worked so hard to protect. By increasing security presence in the reserve, the cruel practice of snaring wild animals can be mitigated. Your contribution today will hugely help us to protect the welfare of important wildlife.
